Mockingbird, morning dew Another day bright and new There's a prayer that I carry with me To be kind, to be meek To love my enemies To keep hope in the face of darkness So we sow the seeds in our victory garden Hands in the earth so the heart doesn't harden Cries of our children won't soon be forgotten Each one a flower in our victory garden For the rain, for the Sun For the hardships that come We will carry this burden together To be strong for the weak Song for those who can't speak Hand in hand no matter the weather So we sow the seeds in our victory garden Hands in the earth so the heart doesn't harden Cries of our children won't soon be forgotten Each one a flower in our victory garden I remember the day I saw innocence fade Saw her tears through the glass in the window Of the bus that was parked Shots were still firing off Oh God, who are we truly defending? So we sow the seeds in our victory garden Hands in the earth so the heart doesn't harden Cries of our children won't soon be forgotten Each one a flower in our victory garden Rows and rows and rows of roses Rows and rows and rows of roses Each one a flower in our victory garden
